Keep us posted about how your CF goes. Read the "Battery issue" thread and reply in there when you get the chance, several users -me included- reported a HIGH drainage of battery when a CF card is inserted, no matter how much you use it, or if the 214 is turned on or off, and no matter even if the "cf power" in the power settings is disabled.

Typical sign is a loss of charge of 12-13% during the night when the pocketpc is in suspended mode, and an overal battery life in normal use of a couple days. As soon as you leave the pocketpc without any CF inserted, the battery life goes to normal, maximum 4% drainage during the night.
